Well I'm lost..so GL. Just go measure your battery and then go to a local optima dealer and measure that.

i measured my space.. and it seems like i can fit any optima yellow top under my hood. what do u guys suggest i should get???

D34/78. How much would that cost you? Best price here would be like $260 Cad. But Wal-Mart has the 34-78 Redtop's for $160. Since I will need 2 I am gonna have to go with the redtops instead. Can't justify spending the extra cost when I don't really need 2 batts, more luxury than anything.

I believe the Yellow tops are side mount and top mount. I know my optima yellow top has both terminals

Ther eis some yellowtops that have just the top posts.

It doesnt matter if it has just the top posts or both side and top posts. Just use whatever you need.

They don't list my vehicle either but I can fit there biggest battery in the stock battery location. They only list vehicles that are an exact match. All of there batteries should come w/ some plastic adapters that will usually allow them to fit most applications unless you currently have a small battery.

Are those prices for one or two batteries? I can get the 34-78 battery at my local Sam's Club for $109.

Thats each. Auto stores are like $270 for a YT and $210 for a RT. Battery stores that carry them are just slightly cheaper. Wal-Mart is the cheapest but only have the red and blue tops.

I just noticed you were in Canada. I forgot, you guys have to pay for that free insurance w/ higher taxes and higher costs for taxable items.
